LETTER: Care about military

To the Editor: Thanks to an uncaring, military-cutting Congress, Senate and a president that spends money over budget like a drunken sailor, here is a partial list of unnecessary military cuts:

Air shows are cancelled;, USAF museum in Dayton will close galleries and exhibits; fewer doctors accepting Tricare; USAF Tops has cancelled its 60th anniversary tour; cuts continue for military tuition assistance programs; military firefighters are not receiving their promised hazard duty pay; veterans who own businesses continue to have trouble winning government contracts!

So when will Congress, the Senate and president stop taking pay raises and vacations to reinstate the previous cuts? Our very brave military, especially their families, deserve more, and not these unnecessary cuts.

Over 2,182 military have been killed and over 18,360 military wounded in Afghanistan. I pray every day for these suffering military families. Especially for the too many military parents, widows, widowers, orphans, sons, daughters, sisters, brothers and close relatives who have lost loved ones.
